Why these stock markets get loss and profits?

DEMAND & SUPPLY of the shares among share holders..
Also depends on the companies infrastructure and trust and its profit and losses

The usual law of demand and supply if you are looking at the short term.

Over the long term, it depends on the fundamental performance of the company.

As the experts say, "In the short term, the stock market is like a voting machine, but in the long run, it is like a weighing machine"!

Markets depend on demand and supply and sentiments of players. The present sentiment is low and with the financial meltdown it would continue to be low for a few months.
The volatility of the demand and supply create the loss and profits for the players are there some body to buy and some body to sell. All depends on his financial clout and play.

it's all about the profit of one & loss of other..........

Bacause it depends on supply and demand. in long term there will not be a Loss( 5 to 10 years). In short term, very hard to avoid loss.

Stock markets gain and loose for various reasons. News flows, earnings reports, rumours, insider trading, etc

The Stock Market, among just about every market, conforms to a lw called the "Law of Supply and Demand".

But before we can answer your question we must first understand just what is the "Law of Supply and Demand".

Law of Demand: "The higher the price of a good or service, the less it will be demanded".

Say for example that you saw a PS3 on sale for $0.10. Brand new, authentic, everything. Would you purchase it? Of course. Do you think others would purchase it? Yes, as the price is well below its intrinsic value and everyone can afford it. Now let's say the price of the PS3 shot up to $5,000. Would you buy it? No, I would hope. Would others buy it? Not at all. That willingness and the ability to purchase the PSP is "Demand". That is in essence the Law of Demand: The higher the price of a good or service, the less it will be demanded".

Now we must take the Law of Supply.
The Law of Supply states: "The higher the price of a good or service, the more the quantity supplied".

Say you were selling those PS3's. If you sold it at first for $0.10, knowing of course that you are not making any profit? No. Would you much prefer to sell it at $5,000? Yes, because it would mean more profit. That is the Law of Supply.

But then we have to add two and two together. Would you purchase a good that was $0.10, but would someone sell that good for $0.10? No on the supplier's part, so the PS3 has to reach something called an "equilibrium", where both Price and Quantity meet. Would you purchase a PS3 for $100? Seems like a pretty good deal. Would someone sell a PS3 to you for $100? Sure, sounds a lot better than the initial transaction.

And that's what the stock market is. It's a balancing act between price and quantity/supply and demand.

because profit and loss fluctuates
